Although Horizon Zero Dawn is a variation on the tested “ubigame” formula and fails to even get close to The Witcher 3 in terms of utilizing the open world, amazing setting makes it a beautiful science fiction fairy tale that manages to stay gripping till the very end. [04/2017, p.62]- CD-Action

The series has barely evolved since Sniper Elite 2 – it got stuck in World War II and one gameplay blueprint. Even the visuals are outdated. Moreover I simply can’t take Karl Fairburne’s exploits seriously as he singlehandedly clears whole villages full of Nazis, takes on tanks and for the third time shoots Hitler in the nuts in the DLC. Pure nonsense. [04/2017, p.60]- CD-Action

The only positive thing I can write about Husk is that its soundtrack is decent. [04/2017, p.58]- CD-Action

Bloody Boobs is a hollow, terribly executed, idiotic, sexist spittle. [04/2017, p.57]- CD-Action

A Normal Lost Phone is neither terrible nor thrilling. It doesn’t offer a truly interesting story, an engaging gameplay or a fresh outlook on the matters it touches. I feel I wouldn’t have missed anything, if I had never played it. [04/2017, p.55]- CD-Action

It’s an enjoyable game for a younger audience or in small doses. If you play it for hours you will get tired of it, because in the long run its gameplay gets repetitive – and that is Doodle God’s biggest flaw. [04/2017, p.55]- CD-Action

Diluvion is neither especially pretty nor polished, it can be frustrating and its low budget is obvious, but despite all that I stayed in the office after hours to play it not because I had to, but because I wanted to. Leisurely exploration of a silent, atmospheric underwater world is surprisingly enjoyable. [04/2017, p.54]- CD-Action

Why would anybody need Fire Emblem Heroes when we’ve got this unique gem? [04/2017, p.53]- CD-Action

Freedom of exploration, complex ecosystem and breathtaking visuals result in an unbelievably strong sense of communing with nature, but horrible UI, some design flaws and common glitches undermine theHunter’s value. Nonetheless it’s a unique game worth checking out. [04/2017, p.52]- CD-Action

An addictive but mindless and unfunny game that I could only recommend as a time killer on mobile devices, because playing it on a PC is a pure waste of time. [04/2017, p.50]- CD-Action

After a series of letdowns Team Ninja returns to form it displayed with Ninja Gaiden Black. Nioh is a variation on the Souls series, and although it is not as intriguing story wise, its gameplay is much more enjoyable. [04/2017, p.46]- CD-Action

The developers wasted a promising maximum security prison setting by resorting to clichés that drag the story down. Do not expect the atmosphere to be on par with The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay either. I wouldn’t call this DLC worthless but it’s a shame that we’re parting with Adam Jensen under such disappointing circumstances. [04/2017, p.45]- CD-Action

The game can be infuriating but I formed a weird attachment to it and retried time after time while mumbling profanities under my breath. [04/2017, p.45]- CD-Action

Complexity of gameplay mechanics and really decent immersion make up for the game’s repetitiveness and very slow pace. Despite its flaws I spent almost 20 hours with Take On Mars and didn’t even notice when all that time flew by. [04/2017, p.43]- CD-Action

During 12 hours I spent with Night in the Woods it grew from an average game to a member of genre’s elite. [04/2017, p.42]- CD-Action

I love the tension that builds when two experienced players face each other and turn their duel into a believable, fascinating spectacle of skill and tactics. For Honor really shines when that happens. Unfortunately great combat system is not enough to make a game great as a whole. For Honor’s single player campaign is a joke, there are connection issues and no dedicated servers, and 4v4 modes often turn into mindless slaughter. [04/2017, p.36]- CD-Action

Realpolitiks manages to be complex and accessible at the same time and can be a great introduction to grand strategy wargames. [03/2017, p.73]- CD-Action

It’s an ideal party game worth buying even if you already own SingStar, because We Sing is better in many aspects. [03/2017, p.71]- CD-Action

It’s the best runner I’ve ever played. Its only notable flaw are fps drops on some levels. [03/2017, p.69]- CD-Action

A huge, lively space bazaar is overwhelming at first, but you tame it little by little and get into a bitter-sweet routine. It’s a lesson in accepting permanent destitution, limiting your ambitions, and enjoying small things. If you’re after a breathtaking story, you’ll be disappointed – as opposed to those who take pleasure in constant exploration and have a knack for trading. [03/2017, p.68]- CD-Action

I spent 46 hours with the PC edition of TFitF, so I obviously love this game. I wish it let me rate it higher this time, but I couldn’t do it because of the bugs – not very frustrating but frequent. [03/2017, p.67]- CD-Action

DE2 is a second division title, but for its price it is a surprisingly enjoyable game with cool equipment upgrade system and dozens of hours of content. [03/2017, p.66]- CD-Action

I’m not saying you need to play Milkmaid, but if you enjoy traditional point’n’click games and pixel art, you definitely can give it a chance. [03/2017, p.64]- CD-Action

The game looks amazing and is overall very charming, but it seems it lost half of its content along the way, because it ends before it manages to fulfill its potential. I also felt that the designers couldn’t agree on how combat should play out, so it got stuck somewhere between tactical and frenetic. [03/2017, p.62]- CD-Action

A stylish hybrid of a shooter and a racing game. Pakour, pixel perfect precision, dodging bullets. Joy, euphoria, satisfaction. We could have gotten all that, but what we got instead is BIOS with its set of uninspired corridors where luck is more important than skill. [03/2017, p.61]- CD-Action

I have no idea how the developers managed to waste such an intriguing beginning of the story. They clearly forgot that a good horror game should relentlessly keep players on the edge of their seats, not ruin the atmosphere with pathetic jokes. [03/2017, p.59]- CD-Action
